Want an amazing meal, that's cheap, super healthy and delicious? Would you like to enjoy it on the beautiful beach or virtually any place with an amazing view? Well, here it is...inspired by the Paleo diet (meat and fish based diet) for optimal muscle building and weight-loss:
BBQ chicken (50 baht) + Green Papaya Salad (40 baht) = deliciousness + high protein + high fibre + high vitamin C & antioxidants
This is one thing I looooove so much here in Thailand; just about everywhere you go you can see smoke rising and smell the deliciousness from far away, at the markets, by the beach, even at the side of the highways. Yeap, you know it: it's THAI BBQ!!!!
It's the best meal a non-vegetarian could ask for, amazing, hot & tasty chicken straight off the grill. And what's best is the price. You can get your self chicken on a skewer for as little as 20 baht. Yesterday I was at the street market in Tong Sala and got myself a chicken drumstick for exactly that: "20 BAHT!!!" That is such a great deal I call that a "steal" :-P ...if you want a bigger piece, such as a whole entire chicken thigh, it will cost you around 50-60 baht, which is also a "steal".
So here is the low down on the rest of the Super-meal. Anywhere there is a Thai BBQ, there is green papaya salad, called "Som Tam" in Thai. SO grab your self a chicken on a stick, then ask for "Som Tam" with only ONE chili (unless you want to call the fire department for the fire that will ignite in your mouth), and lastly ask for a little side of Sweet-Chili sauce. Get it to go and then find yourself the most beautiful spot on the island to enjoy this amazing meal. My fav spot is Happy Beach in Sri Thanu. This beach is one of the quietest and most beautiful beaches not only on this island, but probably in the whole world...white sandy beach, pristine turquoise water, BBQ chicken...now that's what I call PARADISE, oh yeah!
